在历年大学英语六级考试中，阅读理解题所占的分值比较高，考生在此题中丢分也比较多，是试题难度大吗?考生回答不是，但又普遍反映说文章中几乎没有生词，可有些句子就是弄不明白其意思，影响了对答案的正确选择而导致失分。究其根源，是考生未能把握好意群在英语阅读理解中的运用。现将在阅读理解中有关意群方面存在的问题归纳如下，以供参阅。 1?当出现复合句时，特别是定语从句和宾语从句，若定语从句关系词或宾语从句连接词that被省略，考生常常会打乱意群，读起来不得要领。例如： ① The crafts people buy include things to decorate their homes，clothes for their children and gifts for their friends，holidays，weddings or special occasions. people buy是定语从句，限制the crafts，如果将The crafts people看作一个意群，则后面的buy include things便没法理解了。 ② He must capture the horse.He knew better man than he had tried. 此例第二句中的knew后省略了that，better m an than he属于一个意群，是这个宾语从句的主语，若把he knew better放在一起读，下文就读不通了。 2.非谓语动词-ing形式与-ed形式引起的麻烦。例如： ③ Assembly will have limited self- governing powers，British say it could be as long as 30 years before the North might be in charge of its own affairs. |
